Did Jack Antonoff shade Taylor Swift ex Joe Alwyn in song 'Hey Joe'?

Look what you made him do.

Jack Antonoff might be shading Taylor Swift’s ex-boyfriend Joe Alwyn in a new song — at least, that’s what fans believe.

The musician revealed the tracklist for his upcoming Bleachers album on X (formerly Twitter) on Wednesday, and it includes a song titled “Hey Joe.”

Antonoff’s other new tracks include “Call Me After Midnight,” “Jesus Is Dead” and “Woke Up Today.”

Moreover, Antonoff, 39, tweeted the song titles while attending the 2023 GQ Men of the Year Awards, which honored both him and Alwyn, 32.

The event, which was held at London’s Royal Opera House, marked Alwyn’s first red carpet appearance since the actor split from Swift, 34, in April.

“Track 10 is going to tell us how bad he couldn’t fight,” one Twitter user jeered.

“Tinfoil hat theory is ‘Hey Joe’ a Joe Alwyn diss track,” a second person quipped.

“Track 10 already leaked,” a third user posted alongside a clip of Swift hosting “Saturday Night Live” in 2009.

“Everybody’s losing their s – – t , omg Jack,” another user laughed. “He defo knows what is he doing with that song title.”

Other weren’t as certain of Antonoff’s motives, however.

“Guys, ‘Hey Joe’ is probably a reference to Daniel Johnston’s ‘The Unfinished Album.’ Thematically aligns with a lot of Bleachers’ discography too,” a user pointed out.

Antonoff, who also serves as Swift’s producer, helped the Pennsylvania native write her 2017 album “Reputation” through her 2022 hit “Midnights.”

“Can y’all shut up this is so obviously his own album tracklist,” a second person slammed.

“Swifties, I need you to disperse immediately. That song is not for you,” another said.

Antonoff’s publicist tells The Post that the song speculation is categorically not true and is not related to Alwyn.

Both men have a very long history with the “Blank Space” songstress.

Antonoff, who also serves as Swift’s producer, has often served as the Pennsylvania’s co-songwriter, including on her 2017 album “Reputation” and her 2022 hit “Midnights.”

Swift was in attendance for Antonoff’s wedding over the summer to Margaret Qualley — with Swifties swarming outside the Long Beach Island, New Jersey, nuptials.

The frenzied scene came after Swift and Alwyn called it quits after six years of dating.

“This is not the look of a woman who is happy to see y’all,” one TikTok user said in a video, adding that Swift looked “scared” at the time.

A source told Page Six that “it wasn’t dramatic” adding that “[The relationship] just ran its course.”

“The audacity meter is beyond,” the critic went on, adding that it was “disrespectful.”

The frenzied scene came after Swift and Alwyn called it quits after six years of dating.

A source told Page Six that “it wasn’t dramatic” and that “[the relationship] just ran its course.”

The British actor and Swift, who has since moved on with Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce, stayed relatively private during their relationship, even when the singer sparked engagement rumors after wearing what appeared to be a ring during her 2020 Netflix documentary, “Miss Americana.”
